MALE STYLE TIP OF THE DAY: How to rock the tie

“I must admit I’m in love with at RL Prince of Wales tie you posted, but I’m a little hesitant to go out and buy it… I don’t have a job that requires ties, though I try to wear them as often as I can (to social occasions). But I don’t know what I’d match with that other than a crisp white shirt. You mention pastels… which ones? And what jacket colors? I’m afraid I’d mess it up and have something pretty to hang up in the closet, as much as it is pretty to look at. C’mon Mary, help a guy out!”

With the clean looks that are in for men right now, you can rock a tie any time. I would pair this with:

Shirts: black, white, pink, lavendar

Jackets: black, white, navy, pink

If you want to make it more casual, unbotton the collar and top button and slide the tie down. Not my favorite look, but confidence will sell it.
